So why should us urban survivalists care about what people think about those in a higher economic status? Because, you may be one of them; or be PERCEIVED as one of them. Again, so what, why should you be worried?

We at Zenshin LLC, do not care much for politics, be we care about and study human behavior. Our last post was about surviving a gang attack and the victim of that attack was described primarily as a driver of a Range Rover SUV. The news outlets focused not on the victim as a person but on his status (what he was driving). All you need to do is keep track of the talking heads and there is a serious trend to demonize those that have money. Again, we do not care if this is justified or not, but it does add to the possibility that one’s socio-economic status may now be a factor in determining whether you are targeted individual.

Those who have money just are not helping. Take this rich girl for example. She basically says “Let them eat cake.” Well, we know what happened to the last person who said that.

She went on a rant that went viral about how she is sick and tired about being put down by poor people. Here is her rant.

So I ask you, when there is a black-out or a natural disaster and a mob forms because they felt they were left behind and not treated fairly because they are poor, who are they going after? Other poor, left behind, disenfranchised people?

So where do you fall in all of this? Check below to see (2010 statistics). Note, half of this nation’s wage earners make less than $34,338. That is potentially a lot of angry people going after the top 25%. If you are in the top 25%, I would worry. The top 1% can afford to get on their planes and get out of dodge. What are you going to do, get in your Range Rover SUV?

This YouTube video recently had over 11 million views. It discussed how wealth is perceived and what it actually is. The general population actually thinks there is greater equity and they are better then they really are. Now, with videos like this, people are now being educated on where they stand on the wealth inequity scale. Over 11 million people watched this video. It’s not going to be pretty. The question is, what are you going to do?
